!help some questiones about denpendency tree

Hi guys! I use databinding in my program, and use the ‘resolutionStrategy.force’ command to force the software version I need. Here I force databinding to 7.0.4. By printing the dependency tree, I can see that the higher version 7.3.0 is indeed overwritten by 7.0.4.

What puzzles me, is why 7.3.0(n) still appears in these two following directories, whether these two directories will not eventually participate in my APK version compilation, and what does this (n) mean?

annotationProcessor - Classpath for the annotation processor for 'main'. (n)
+--- org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.22 (n)
\--- androidx.databinding:databinding-compiler:7.3.0 (n)

api - API dependencies for 'main' sources. (n)
+--- project vmall (n)
+--- project plugin-about (n)
+--- project plugin-family (n)
+--- project plugin-ble-base (n)
+--- project app-upgrade-sdk (n)
+--- project homeservice-sdk (n)
+--- project homecommon-sdk (n)
+--- project common-db-sdk (n)
+--- project feedback-sdk (n)
+--- project common-bi-sdk (n)
+--- project common-log-sdk (n)
+--- project plugin-operation (n)
+--- project plugin-global (n)
+--- project laboratory (n)
+--- scmsdk (n)
+--- androidx.databinding:databinding-common:7.3.0 (n)
+--- androidx.databinding:databinding-runtime:7.3.0 (n)
\--- androidx.databinding:databinding-adapters:7.3.0 (n)

The (n) is explained in the legend at the bottom of the output:

(n) - A dependency or dependency configuration that cannot be resolved.

api and annotationProcessor are non-resolvable and non-consumable configurations.
They are only used to declare dependencies, thus the entries “cannot be resolved” and thus the resolution strategy does not apply and it shows the originally declared version.
